Jenny Seagrove makes a welcome return to the second installation of Barbara Taylor Bradfords thrilling sequel to the multi million copy bestseller A Woman of Substance. Hold The Dream is the second story of the Harte family. Multi millionairess Emma Harte is now played by Deborah Kerr, while her favorite granddaughter Paula is played by Jenny Seagrove.

Emma Harte is now 80 and is ready to hand over the reigns of the vast business empire she created all those years ago to her favorite grandchild Paula Fairley.

This story follows Paula's rise through from Emmas assistant to managing director of the vast emporium created by Emma over 70 years ago, whose life echos that of Paulas. A marriage on the rocks, callous betrayal at the hands of her family and the tragic loss of loved ones.

Hold the Dream is a story of one womans determination to single handedly keep her family fortune safe and to "Hold the Dream" of one very extraordinary woman.
